SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Capture external sources into raw/ by automatically detecting the source type to streamline ingestion and reduce manual steps.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Auto-detects the source type (web articles, GitHub repos, YouTube videos, PDFs, local files, clipboard) and extracts content into raw/.
  • Saves captured content with kebab-case filenames in raw/ to enable predictable references.
  • Supports an ingestion shortcut to kick off the wiki ingestion pipeline after capture.

Quick Start

Capture an external source by running /wiki:capture <source> and let the system save it to raw/ for later ingestion.

Frequently Asked Questions about /wiki:capture

FAQPage Schema
How do I automatically capture web articles and PDFs into raw markdown files?

You can capture web articles, PDFs, and YouTube videos into raw files by using a source ingestion tool that auto-detects the source type and saves extracted content with kebab-case filenames. This streamlines ingestion by eliminating manual format handling.

What is the best way to ingest GitHub repos and local clipboard content for wiki automation?

The best way to ingest GitHub repos and clipboard content is to use an automated capture tool that detects the input source, fetches the data securely, and saves it to raw/. This enables predictable references for later pipeline ingestion.

Can I capture and ingest external sources in a single step?

Yes, you can capture and ingest external sources in a single step by using the optional ingestion shortcut. This triggers the wiki ingestion pipeline immediately after capturing and saving the content to raw/.

Does source auto-detection work for both local files and web URLs?

Source auto-detection works for both local files and web URLs. The system securely fetches external sources like web articles and GitHub repos while extracting local files and clipboard data into a unified raw/ directory structure.

Why does my captured content need frontmatter and kebab-case filenames before ingestion?

Captured content needs frontmatter and kebab-case filenames to ensure predictable references and metadata tracking during ingestion. This standardization allows downstream pipelines to reliably process raw/ directory contents.
